The Field List Area
The Field List Area is the main area in List Fields. In this table, you will see the fields of the documents. Below you see how it looks:
You see that the field list is separated into two main bands, Fields and Documents. The Fields band has by default a yellow background, while the Document band has a white background. The Fields band contain key information about the field, while the Documents-band contain the content of the field in a given document. If you look at multiple documents at once in List Fields, you will see multiple columns in the Documents-band, with headers like Document 01, Document 02 ... Document nn.
You have the following features in the field list area:
- Select a field and see information about the field in the Information area, and see it's content in the Output area.
- Sort any column in any direction
- Reorder the list, by moving the columns
- Show- or hide columns from the list with Select visible columns.
- Filter the list, so see only certain information
- Group the list by any column - or multiple columns
- Print the list
- Export the list into text, XML, HTML and other formats
- Change the looks of the field list. The fonts, fontsize, foreground and background colors can be changed in the Field List Area Preferences dialog box.
You can perform the following actions from the list:
- Right-click on the Document column Header (such as "Document 01" in the screenshot above) to see the context menu for the document. You can for example show this document in the Notes client, or you can designate this document as the winner in a replication- or save conflict.
- Right-click on any field to see the context menu where you can add- or delete fields. This is only visible if you have author rights to the currently selected document.
